Chapter 14: Daxia's Fourth Year of Death



Qiao Zhe did not dare to say more and quickly changed the subject, "Since Your Highness wants the King of Lanterns and has composed half of a swan song, the King of Lanterns will belong to Your Highness. As for the silver, I will definitely not accept it."

Helian Chi did not respond, but played with Helian Yu's little flower bud and asked her, "You got what you wanted, are you happy?"

"Fourth brother, this is not very authentic."

Helian Yu grabbed Helian Chi's rebellious hand and curled his lips at him.

"Just get it." Helian Chi poked Helian Yu's bulging cheeks with his fingers, "Xiao Yu'er should learn from Fourth Brother."

There is cannibalism in the palace, and she is so stupid. He will be unhappy if he can't see her one day in the future.

Helian Yu glared at him and whispered, "Tsk."

She lowered her eyes, her heart pounding. Helian Chi was clearly a patient yandere, so how could he... be so open and aboveboard? Helian Chi's words successfully made Qiao Zhe lower his head, not daring to look or think too much.

There was a knock on the wooden door, and the voice of the young steward was heard.

"Master, Your Highness, there is a girl outside who wants to see you."

Helian Chi chuckled, raised his eyelids, and glanced at Qiao Zhe, "Qiufeng Pavilion is Mr. Qiao's territory, I will not disturb you any more."

Qiao Zhe stood up and saw him off respectfully.

Before leaving, Qiao Zhe suddenly took out a square magnolia jade pendant from his waist and handed it to Helian Yu.

"Your Highness, this is the first time I meet the young lady. I am offering this small jade pendant as a token of my appreciation. I hope the young lady will not despise it."

Helian Yu put her hands into her sleeves. She remembered the book describing this jade pendant as a token of the Qiu Feng Pavilion, which could mobilize the officials of the Qiu Feng Pavilion in various places and give the Qiu Feng Pavilion less than one million taels of silver.

This jade pendant was given to Liu Qiuyue by Qiao Zhe after she saved him.

how……

Qiao Zhe gave this thing to her the first time he met her?

Helian Yu couldn't figure it out in his little head, and didn't know whether this thing was a blessing or a curse. He just pretended not to see it and lowered his head to fiddle with the embroidery pattern on Helian Chi's clothes.

Helian Chi's eyes were as blue as jade, covered by mist, making it difficult to see clearly.

"Mr. Qiao is willing to give it up. I used to like this thing very much, but I couldn't get Mr. Qiao to give it up. Now Mr. Qiao is very generous."

"Xiao Yu'er." Helian Chi called Helian Yu. Seeing her picking at his clothes, the veins on his head trembled, "If you pick at my clothes again, they will be torn."

Helian Yu let go of her little hand and smiled ingratiatingly at Helian Chi, "I'm sorry, fourth brother."

Helian Chi had no intention of blaming Helian Yu, "Xiao Yu'er, the jade pendant that Master Qiao gave you is a rare item, why don't you thank Master Qiao?"

Helian Yu felt uncomfortable all over. She had wanted to wait patiently until the Great Xia was destroyed, but various things happened, like spider silk, entangled her tightly.

She felt more and more that there would be no peace in the future.

"Mr. Qiao, since the jade pendant is a rare item, don't give it away so easily!" Helian Yu struggled to refuse, and put on a small face to teach Qiao Zhe, "You have to find someone who is destined for it!"

Qiao Zhe's eyes were clear and he offered the jade pendant with both hands, "The one we are destined to meet is far away but close at hand, please accept it, young lady."

Helian Yu: ...

Helian Chi held Helian Yu and stood there. Qiao Zhe bowed, holding the jade pendant in both hands, waiting for Helian Yu to accept it.

Helian Yu gritted her teeth, grabbed the jade pendant with her little hand, and thanked Qiao Zhe with a desperate look, "Thank you, Mr. Qiao."

She took other people's kindness, and she doesn't know what sour, bitter, or spicy fruits she will reap in the future.

After coming out from Qiao Zhe's place, Helian Yu was held by Helian Chi and strolled on Xichang Street.

When we arrived at the moat, there were flower boats and small boats in the river, and many young men and women held hands to release lanterns and pray for blessings and make wishes.

"Fourth brother! Buy it!"

Seeing that Helian Yu was a little girl, the stall owner introduced her with a smile, "Young lady, you have good eyesight! This year, light lanterns to pray for blessings, and all your wishes will come true in the future! Especially, that handsome young man, like a swallow on a beam, flew into your home!"

Helian Yu's face froze, and the hand holding the rabbit lantern seemed to be burning hot.

What a handsome young man! She doesn’t even know if he can live to grow up safely!

"Buy one!" Helian Yu turned around and smiled at Helian Chi, "Fourth brother, do you want to buy one?"

"No." Seeing Helian Yu smiling, Helian Chi thought she believed the nonsense of the stall owner 'Jia Gongzi', so he reminded her, "Marriage is a big matter, and it is never decided by these weird powers."

"I know."

Helian Yu urged Helian Chi to pay the money, asked the stall owner for paper and pen, and wrote on the note -

Stay safe!

Eat well and keep warm!

Helian Chi was startled for a moment, watching Helian Yu, who seemed to be always energetic, release the lanterns, and followed behind her.

Is it such a simple wish? After lighting the lanterns, Helian Chi carried Helian Yu back to the mansion.

Helian Yu took a hot bath and slept comfortably on the gold-inlaid bed. The whole room was filled with exquisite objects, including calligraphy and paintings, jewelry, porcelain, and so on.

The most eye-catching thing is a bunch of plum blossoms, which are in bud and about to bloom, with a faint fragrance.

"My young master, I will come in and take you to bed."

Chang An's voice sounded outside the door.

Helian Yu said in a loud voice, "No, go back to sleep!"

As for Chang An, Helian Yu always maintained an attitude of avoiding him if possible.

Chang An didn't ask any more questions and left obediently.

Helian Yu felt under the pillow and found a diary.

[Today I went to the Lantern Festival with Helian Chi. He was really on guard! He didn't eat any snacks on the road! ] [There are still three years before Helian Chi rebels, three years before the tyrant is poisoned, and four years before Daxia is destroyed. I am counting down to escape! ] [Qiao Zhe gave me the token of Qiu Feng Pavilion. Why? But...if I take out one million taels of silver now, will he hunt me down? ] [Forget it, they are all monsters who disturb my peaceful life. ] [Next, Liu Qiuyue should fight in the house, teach her concubine mother and concubine sister a lesson, then attend the flower-viewing banquet, become famous for her poems, and then get engaged to Helian Mo, that stupid straight-minded idiot! ] [Helian Mo, the only man who doesn't like the heroine and likes Xiao Qingmei, but Helian Mo died on the battlefield, and Xiao Qingmei was forced to marry someone else and hanged herself. This can be considered a happy ending. ] [Damn it, can Master come down to earth to save me? If I could see Master, I would definitely… definitely not steal your notebook! Master! Master! Master! Please save me! ] [This diary has 306 points. ]

[Current points: 539.]

Helian Yu didn't look at the system mall. He threw down his diary and fell asleep.

She slept soundly, but no one who read this diary slept soundly.

In the Seventh Prince's Mansion, Helian Su was so angry that he smashed three vases and ten sets of tea sets, and wished he could hack Helian Chi to death.

He originally thought that Helian Chi was able to win the throne because of his ability, but in the end... Daxia was destroyed? A rebellious son!

Rebellious son!

Rebellious son!

In the Fourth Prince's Mansion, Helian Chi had a gloomy expression on his face and kicked over the tables and chairs in the room.

"I will destroy my country? That's nonsense!"
